- Manchester City used just one of their own academy products - Kelechi Iheanacho for 526 minutes, of 1.4 per cent of their total - and recorded the lowest totals of minutes by players developed in the UK (14 per cent) and Europe as a whole (59 per cent). They used only four players who graduated from UK-based academies, with Raheem Sterling (Liverpool), John Stones (Barnsley) and Fabian Delph (Leeds) joining Iheanacho.

- The top six teams in the league - Chelsea, Tottenham, City, Liverpool, Arsenal and United - all finished in the bottom eight in terms of minutes played by UK-developed players.
